6    <code class="function">SPI_execute_extended</code> executes a command that might
7    include references to externally supplied parameters.  The command text
8    refers to a parameter as <code class="literal">$<em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em></code>,
9    and the <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;params</code></em> object (if supplied)
10    provides values and type information for each such symbol.
11    Various execution options can be specified
12    in the <em class="parameter"><code>options</code></em> struct, too.
13   </p><p>
14    The <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;params</code></em> object should normally
15    mark each parameter with the <code class="literal">PARAM_FLAG_CONST</code> flag,
16    since a one-shot plan is always used for the query.
17   </p><p>
18    If <em class="parameter"><code>options-&gt;dest</code></em> is not NULL, then result
19    tuples are passed to that object as they are generated by the executor,
20    instead of being accumulated in <code class="varname">SPI_tuptable</code>.  Using
21    a caller-supplied <code class="literal">DestReceiver</code> object is particularly
22    helpful for queries that might generate many tuples, since the data can
23    be processed on-the-fly instead of being accumulated in memory.
